Apple Tree Creek Gregory River

Apple Tree Creek and Gregory River (Bundaberg - Qld) are two nearby Queensland areas with very different economic profiles. Typical weekly household income is far higher in Gregory River (Bundaberg - Qld) at $1,625, compared to $991 in Apple Tree Creek. This gap is reflected in home ownership and spending, with Gregory River (Bundaberg - Qld) having a much higher share of homes owned outright (66.7%) and typical monthly mortgage payments that are far higher ($1,549) than those in Apple Tree Creek ($886). Apple Tree Creek is the larger of the two, with more residents and a far higher share of people who identify as having no religion (43.9%).

Everyday life in both places is shaped by a lack of public transport, as neither area has any available stops or departures. They are also similar in that very few residents speak little or no English and they share almost identical typical weekly rents. While both are sparsely served by transport, Apple Tree Creek is more walkable, with a small number of residents living within a 15-minute walk of groceries or a park, whereas no one in Gregory River (Bundaberg - Qld) has this access.
